The South American restaurant just crowned best in the world for 2025

A couple of weeks after announcing their annual list of the world's 51-100 best restaurants, the much-anticipated guide to the best of the best has landed. World's 50 Best announced their winners at a ceremony in Turin last night, and Maido, a restaurant in Lima, Peru, was named the best restaurant on the planet. It's the 23rd edition of the awards, and restaurants from 32 cities across 22 different countries made the ranking, including 10 new entries. So, what's Maido doing that makes it better than all those brilliant spots? The restaurant takes its name from a Japanese phrase used by people to greet each other: 'maido', and is run by chef Mitsuharu 'Micha' Tsumura, the son of Japanese immigrants who formally trained in the US. Recommended: These are the best cities in the world for food, according to Time Out. He then spent time in Osaka mastering the techniques now utilised at this place, and it's resulted in a dazzling blend of Peruvian Amazon flavours cooked with Japanese methods. Think a miniature jaune parcel of pork jowl and palm heart, or yucca served up with Amazonian beans. 'I can't describe it in words really. It's a mix of feelings… All the hard work, all the difficult moments, making people understand what we were doing, and now seeing what we've done with Nikkei cuisine and Peruvian cuisine… with hospitality. Making people happy has always been what I've loved doing,' said Tsumura, after the win. 'I think the most beautiful act of love is to cook for somebody. It's the most beautiful thing that has happened in my life. It's been 11 years [being ranked on The World's 50 Best Restaurants] and it's a dream come true.' Three other restaurants in Lima made the World's 50 Best list – Kjolle, Mérito and Mayta. Read on for all of the outstanding inclusions for 2025.

Japan's Mitsubishi Corp. bets big on US solar with $3.9bn expansion plan

TOKYO -- Japanese trading house Mitsubishi Corp. will boost its solar power generation capacity in the U.S. by 160% by 2028, Nikkei has learned, with the total project expenses expected to be around $3.9 billion. The company aims to localize more of its supply chain, taking advantage of favorable conditions for solar development in the U.S. Soaring global electricity demand, driven by a data center boom, has intensified the race to build out power infrastructure. Solar remains a relatively cost-effective option compared to offshore wind or nuclear, and the geographic scale of the U.S. provides abundant development opportunities.

Nikkei to delete NTT Data from Nikkei 225 constituents

TOKYO -- Nikkei announced on Friday that it will remove NTT Data Group as a component of the Nikkei 225 because, as a result of the tender offer by its parent company NTT, the likelihood of the information technology service provider being delisted has become extremely high. NTT Data, whose parent intends to make it a wholly owned subsidiary, will be replaced by electronics group Rohm on July 4. NTT Data will also be deleted from the Nikkei Stock Index 300, the Nikkei 500 Stock Average and the Nikkei 225 Climate Change 1.5°C Target Index. Instead, Haseko will be added to the Nikkei Stock Index 300 on the same day, while NOF will be added to the Nikkei 500 Stock Average. The replacement in the Nikkei Climate 1.5°C Target Index will not be made until the next review in October.
